How to allow only numeric (0-9) in HTML inputbox using jQuery?

Question

I am creating a web page where I have an input text field in which I want to allow only numeric characters like (0,1,2,3,4,5...9) 0-9.

How can I do this using jQuery

Answer 1

Use JavaScript function isNaN,

if (isNaN($('#inputid').val()))

if (isNaN(document.getElementById('inputid').val()))

if (isNaN(document.getElementById('inputid').value))

Update: And here a nice article talking about it but using jQuery: Restricting Input in HTML Textboxes to Numeric Values
